Flashing Green Light

In the County of Brant, fire protection is proudly provided by volunteer firefighters. When an emergency call comes in, these dedicated individuals may be at work, relaxing with family, or even asleep in the middle of the night. They drop everything to respond—heading first to the fire hall to get trucks on the road, while others may continue directly to the scene in their own vehicles.

To help them get there as quickly and safely as possible, volunteer firefighters use a flashing green light on their personal vehicle. This light is a signal to other motorists that the driver is on their way to an emergency.

If you see a flashing green light in the County of Brant, please pull over safely and let them pass. Every second counts when someone in our community needs help.
